Sig MPX?

[HeavyDuty]

I don't have BUIS on my Rattler, although I went with an Aimpoint for size and reliability. Perhaps low profile BUIS might make sense on a .300, given the superiority of the cartridge, but with 9mm, I would rather shoot my pistol with a dot than a bag gun in 9 with iron sights.

So your inclination for a 9mm bag gun would be dot no irons?

What are people’s thoughts about a dot with no irons for something like a little MPX Copperhead?

For backup in case the red dot optic fails, I have a TLR-8 with the green laser on my MPX, mounted upside down on the 12 o’clock rail. The optic is mounted high enough and the TLR-8 is small enough so as to not cause any significant blockage of the optic window.

I wonder if 45 degree offset mount for backup would work out for this application.

As silly as it sounds, I might almost consider a small pistol RDS on a 45 offset as a backup rather than take up hand guard real estate with irons.

For a small bag gun (which is the niche my little MPX falls in), I didn’t want anything that increased the width of the package, so I wouldn’t have gone with an offset mount.

I was thinking 45°s might be an option, but most I’ve seen are pretty high profile because they are sized for round rails - the Copperhead is pretty narrow. I did see these, they may be an option - they seem lower profile:

Edit - MBUS Pro offsets may actually be lower when folded.

Another possibility is to go with a prismatic optic, like the Primary Arms SLx 1x MicroPrism. That way if the battery dies, you still have a useable reticle as a backup. Then you don’t need to bother with BUIS or laser.

I have one of those here, that is another option.

Using rifles as more rifley things.

After ditching Sig entirely, I bought a 365XL, and the dam broke…… thank goodness for connections made in a previous life or I’d be in the damn poor house.
